Something warning myself

The other day, we were talking about a bad example of preaching, which reminded me some experience.


I am writing them down now, for the warning to myself in future.


(These preachings are not wrong, it's just not proper for new believers or non-believers )

Bubbling to myself...^_<

---

Sampele 1:

"Believers can go to heaven while non-believers will go to the Hell!"


It's quite popular in China's preaching and got a lot of this kind of preaching while I was there.


This kind of threatens as a preaching is not helpful as I felt.

Faith is for happiness and joy, not threaten nor warning.


Faith is the path towards best choice in life, not a worry for the future Hell or Heaven.


Faith should beyond any religions , beyond judgement, beyond curse, beyond fear.

No more fear but joy.

Sample 2

"As a Christian, you should do this; you are not supposed to do that; …"


Then rule number 1, rule number 2...


Shhhhhhhh….!

Isn't faith supposed to be freedom and joy? Where are those rules coming from?


There should be no rules in any faith and if the truth is true, the Power from the truth will bring the righteousness, without any written rules.


PLUS, human don't like rules, human desires freedom.


With righteousness and wisdom, freedom is what we get from faith.

No more rules but righteousness.

Sample 3

Knocking doors everyday…asking "are you interested in XXX? "


Annoying? Yes. Feel Rebellious? Yes.

Psychologically, there should be an exact number of inviting someone to join a group.


I say 2-3 times, but it should be various depending on people and relationship.


I had this annoying experience from one religion group long time ago and at that time I was just confused and uncomfortable, as a stranger and non-believer.


As a warning to myself, I should not be too hospitality, no matter how strongly I am desired to share the joy of faith with friends.


Calm down and pray are always another super natural way to knock the door.

No more over-annoying but praying.

message from dad

My father left a message in my blog on QQ (QQ the same like MSN/Live and popular in China).

He said he miss me and hope I know how to protect myself without him. It seems in his eyes I am will never grow up.

Tears....we never talked to each other so often, but we both understand the father-daughter relationship is full with love and understanding.

He is the guy would like to spend more time in career than family, and would like to be silent instead of saying something romantic or meaningless.

Traditional Chinese father and daughter is this way…But I know he loves me, though he never said so.

What a lovely dad, what a meaningful message, what a great distance for this father-daughter relationship to grow...

Everytime feeling teary, the song 叶子 by 阿桑 will be the only song played in my media player.


It probably will bring more tears, but why not?


叶子


阿桑


叶子　是不会飞翔的翅膀


翅膀　是落在天上的叶子


天堂　原来应该不是妄想


只是我早已经遗忘


当初怎么开始飞翔

＊孤单　是一个人的狂欢


狂欢　是一群人的孤单


爱情　原来的开始是陪伴


但我也渐渐地遗忘


当时是怎样有人陪伴

＃我一个人吃饭旅行　到处走走停停


也一个人看书写信　自己对话谈心


只是心又飘到了哪里


就连自己看也看不清


我想我不仅仅是失去你

重唱　＃,＊,＃,＃

叶子　是不会飞翔的翅膀


翅膀　是落在天上的叶子

Looking forward to the Holy Sunday…:)

Rain for a reason

It was at noon, on Manoa campus, I was walking from class to library as usual.


Rain just polled down from no where, and all of the sudden.


My habit of bringing an unmbrella seems useful now, though it hasn't been using for a while.




There was a lady walking the same direction as I did.


"Go and share the umbrella with her!" Yes, why not?


So I step up, and put my umbrella on her head and shoulder, with the sweetest smile to show my friendly intention.


Thanks, she said.


My pleasure! Where are you heading for?


Library. And you? Thank you for the umbrella.


Oh, me too! I did nothing.




Nothing great happening, nor did I share any gospel with her.


But it's a joyful story, in this "who cares?" world, for Jesus does cares.

Holy Spirit Retreat

Everything starts from the retreat. Being in presence of God and sinking myself in the light of Heaven are such a cheerful experience to do as a baby Christian.




I used to wondering why God hides from human, but now, while He is disclosing His smiling face to me, I understand that it's not Him hiding from us, it's us running away from Him!




It starts from Holy Spirit Retreat, starts from being baptized by Holy Spirit, starts from the truth revealing.




Love, Peace…and Power.

Fun in Chinese series finally finished

Hope the publisher will approve the book soon.
We were told it would take forever to review and marketing.
Should have suggetsted Hazel to publish at lulu.com.
Didn't do that for the name of the company sounds like my own company, or my relatives'.

It's always fun to work, learn, have fun and get paid. Too bad I finish the work fast than we thought. =(
share one of the cover pages here: (it is not the final cover. Changed lots for the resource picture copyright. Try to make everything original.)

everything is Good for health

From C:

"Everything is good for health."

True.

Since we are with a positive attitude, nothing is bad for health.

From S:

凡事感激，


感激傷害你的人，因為他磨練了你的心志


感激欺騙你的人，因為他增進了你的智慧


感激中傷你的人，因為他砥礪了你的人格


感激鞭打你的人，因為他激發了你的鬥志


感激遺棄你的人，因為他教導了你該獨立


感激絆倒你的人，因為他強化了你的雙腿


感激斥責你的人，因為他提醒了你的缺點

Bingo!

It is not easy to practise in real life and our mouth & action are always faster than mind.

Appreciation is a life long lesson, for a healthy life. =)

From R:

You got a teacher, whose name is Jesus Christ.

You got a most powerful assistant, who is called Holy Spirit.

Yes, I learned that, just now, I felt I am attatched to it.

------------------------------------------------------

Friends and parents, faith and love...Good Lord.

=================================================

Don't complain.

A freind told me that I need to complain.

I was also told that I was always positive behaving and that's not a normal person supposed to be.

Do I need that?

Complaint is not a great thing, as far as I can understand.

Gossip is even worse.

I didn't mind people's complaining to me, for the imperfection of human being.

Also sometimes, people's complaint helps with my behave, for all what they were complaining about were all marked as the things I could not do.

In othe word, being a good listener is a way of learning the perfection.

Friend's suggesiton is good for health and

Obviously, with an appreciative heart, with a "everything is good for health" attitude, we don't need to complain.

Compaint is not the solution. but HS is.
